## Capabilities

| Capability | Fit | Plans | Limitations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manage projects and tasks (`project-management`) | native | all | Timeline and dashboard views need Premium; Lighter than full work-management tools for complex projects |
| Automate simple app-to-app workflows (`workflow-automation`) | partial | all | Mostly in-app automations |
| Build dashboards from spreadsheets and data (`dashboards`) | partial | all | Basic charts over Trello cards only |

## Why people pay for it

- More than 10 collaborators or unlimited boards
- Calendar, timeline and dashboard views
- Admin and security controls

## Reasons to keep paying

- Boards, Power-Ups and Butler automations set up around a team's flow

## Risks

- **functionality_loss** (low): Downgrading removes Premium views and limits collaborators on Free.

Data portability: easy — Boards export to JSON (CSV on Premium); Power-Ups and automations must be rebuilt.
